183 Making Cold Cakes Together

Lin Xiaoyue only stopped after she had filled eight barrels of lime water.

She estimated the amount of lime water in each bucket, which was just enough to make a big pot of cold cakes.

A pot was four buckets’ worth of cold cakes. It was more efficient this way.

After adding the lime water, Lin Xiaoyue looked at the empty water tank and thought that when Li Xiao came back later, he would have to fetch water again.

After mixing the lime water, Lin Xiaoyue rested for a while and waited for the lime water to settle down.

After about ten minutes, Lin Xiaoyue sent the lime water to the shed.

Next, she poured the lime water onto a cloth and filtered it.

As there were not enough buckets, she had to wash them before filling them again.

The lime and impurities that had settled at the bottom of the empty buckets were washed away, and then they would be filled with filtered lime water.

The water tank in the courtyard was almost empty, but it was too troublesome to go to the stream. Lin Xiaoyue went to the kitchen to get water.

Fortunately, there was still a lot of water left in the kitchen’s water tank.

After filtering four buckets of lime water, the cloth was already stained with a lot of lime and small particles.

Lin Xiaoyue changed the filter cloth again before continuing to process with the remaining lime water.

When all the lime water had been filtered, she removed the second piece of cloth and placed it in an empty bucket.

She waited for the cold cakes to be done, and then went to the stream to wash the buckets.

Finally, after finishing that, Lin Xiaoyue carried two buckets of lime water into the kitchen and put them aside for later use.

Finally, she went to the mill.

In the mill, Liu Shi and Aunt Wang had almost finished grinding the rice.

After Lin Xiaoyue arrived, she wanted to take over the job from Aunt Wang.

However, Aunt Wang didn’t let her and insisted on doing it herself.

Lin Xiaoyue cleaned up the stone mill, and then carried the ground rice back to the kitchen with the two of them.

It was time to make the cold cakes.

Lin Xiaoyue took out the big pot that was used to make cold cakes and put it on the stove.

She picked up a bucket of lime water and poured it into the pot.

Then, she used a ladle to scoop up some ground rice paste and poured it into the pot.

At the same time, Liu Shi had already started a fire.

It wasn’t the first time Liu Shi made cold cakes with Lin Xiaoyue. She was very good at controlling the heat.

There was still some time before the cold cakes were ready. Lin Xiaoyue carried the buckets and went with Aunt Wang to the shed.

“We’re going to make eight pots of cold cakes this afternoon, four pots at a time. Later, please help me send the cold cakes to the stream to cool them down.”

“Also, help me send the wooden buckets and filter cloth to the stream for washing. Then,bring them back to dry.”

It sounded simple, but it was not easy.

There were more than thirty pots of cold cakes and eight wooden buckets. It would take a lot of trips to and fro.

“Sure!”

She took the wooden buckets and the two pieces of cloth from Lin Xiaoyue and left.

Lin Xiaoyue took four wooden buckets from the shelf. Then, she returned to the kitchen and continued to make the cold cakes.

Not long after, they were done.

Lin Xiaoyue placed the cold cakes into four wooden buckets.

When Aunt Wang came back and saw that the cold cakes were already out of the pot, she took two buckets of cold cakes and went outside.

Lin Xiaoyue told Aunt Wang to slow down, then she went to wash the pot and prepare to make the next pot of cold cakes.
